GETTING STARTED

See page 228.
1. Wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
Wear full eye protection, ear protection, non-slip
heavy-duty gloves, substantial footwear, and protective
clothing at all times while operating the product. Do not
operate the product when barefoot or wearing open
sandals.
2. Remove the parts from the packaging. Assemble the
product.
WARNING! If any parts are damaged or missing,
do not operate the product until the parts are replaced.
Failure to heed this warning could result in serious
personal injury.
Place the chain drive links into the bar groove. Position
the chain so that there is a loop at the back of the bar.
The saw chain should face in the direction of chain
rotation. If the chain faces backwards, turn the loop
over.
3. Loosen the bar mounting nuts. Remove the nuts and
sprocket cover.
Hold the chain in position on the bar, and place the loop
around the drive sprocket. Lower the bar so that the
bolts go through the slot in the bar.
4. Reinstall the sprocket cover. Install and hand-tighten
the bar mounting nuts. The guide bar must be free to
move for chain tension adjustment.
5. Adjust the chain tension. Turn the chain tensioning
screw using the combination wrench. Frequently check
the chain tension while adjusting.
To increase the chain tension, turn the chain
–
tensioning screw clockwise.
To reduce the chain tension, turn the chain
–
tensioning screw counterclockwise.
NOTE: The chain tension is correct when the gap
between the cutter in the chain and the bar is between
4 and 5 mm for the RY36CSX30B and between 5 and
6 mm for RY36CSX40B. Pull the chain in the middle
of the lower side of the bar downwards (away from the
bar), and measure the distance between the bar and
the chain cutters.
NOTE: The temperature of the chain increases during
normal operation, causing the chain to stretch. Check
the chain tension frequently and adjust as required. A
chain that is tensioned while warm may be too tight
upon cooling. Make sure that the chain tension is
correctly adjusted as specified in these instructions.
6. Hold up the tip of the guide bar, and securely tighten the
bar mounting nuts.
7. Add chain lubricating oil.
Use only RYOBI chainsaw lubricating oil from an
authorised service centre.
Clear the surface around the oil cap to prevent
contamination. Remove the cap from the oil tank. Pour
the oil into the oil tank, and monitor the oil level gauge.
Ensure that no dirt enters the oil tank while filling. Close
the oil tank, and tighten the cap. Wipe off any spillage.
WARNING! Never work without chain lubricant. If
the saw chain is running without lubricant, the guide
bar and the saw chain can be damaged. Before and
while using the chainsaw, check the oil level in the oil
level gauge.

8. Ensure that the lubricant flow screw is set to open for
the chain and bar oil to be released.
Turn the screw counterclockwise to open and
–
increase the oil flow to the chain and bar.
Turn the screw clockwise to decrease the oil flow to
–
the chain and bar.
A properly functioning chain and bar lubricating system
normally discharges oil from the chain during use. To
check the functionality of the chain and bar lubricating
system, point the tip of the chain at a light-coloured
surface, such as a newspaper. A distinct line of oil
splatter should be observed after a short time.
9. Install the battery pack.
Align the raised ribs on the battery pack with the
grooves in the product's battery port. Insert the battery
pack into the product. Make sure that the latch of the
battery pack snaps in place and that the battery pack
is fully seated and securely attached before beginning
operation.
WARNING! Always hold the product with the right hand
on the rear handle and the left hand on the front handle.
WARNING! Grip both handles with the thumbs and
fi ngers encircling the handles. Ensure that the left hand is
holding the front handle so that the thumb is underneath.
10. Start the product.
Set the chain brake into the run position by grasping
the top of the chain brake lever and pulling towards
the front handle until you hear a click. Pull the trigger
release. Press the switch trigger.
NOTE: To stop the product, engage the chain brake by
rotating the left hand around the front handle. Allow the
back of the hand to push the chain brake lever towards the
bar while the chain is rotating rapidly. Release the switch
trigger and the trigger release.
